NOTE CONCERNING THE NUMBERING OF EQUATIONS, FIGURES, AND REFERENCES; NOTATION Chapters are numbered in roman; sections are numbered in arabic beginning with 1 in each chapter; equations are numbered

11 NOTE CONCERNING THE NUMBERING OF EQUATIONS, FIGURES, AND REFERENCES; NOTATION Chapters are numbered in roman; sections are numbered in arabic beginning with 1 in each chapter; equations are numbered consecutively (1), (2),... in each section, with no reference to the section number. When reference is made to an equation in the same section, only the equation number is given, e.g., (5). When reference is made to an equation in another section in the same chapter, the section and equation numbers are given in the form (7.14). When reference is made to an equation in another chapter, the chapter number, section number, and equation number are given, e.g., (II.7.14). Figures are given both section and figure numbers; thus, Fig. 6.2 is the second figure in Sec. 6. Reference to figures in another chapter includes the chapter number, e.g., Fig. II.6.6. Chapter and section numbers appear at the top of each page, and by reference to these numbers any equation or figure can be quickly found. Bibliographic references for each chapter are arranged alphabetically and numbered consecutively. General references and textbooks are included in the bibliography for Chapter I. Reference to the bibliography for the same chapter is by arabic number only, e.g., Schelkunoff 24 ; a reference to the bibliography for another chapter includes the chapter number, e.g., Hallen The notation distinguishes among vector, real scalar, and complex scalar quantities. In the text all vectors, whether real or complex, are in boldface roman type, except that a few unit vectors are represented by boldface Greek letters with circumflex; real scalars are in lightface italic or lightface Greek; complex scalars are in boldface italic or boldface Greek. A comparison of the several kinds of type used is available in the List of Symbols. In figures, vectors are indicated by arrowheads on the appropriate line segments; complex quantities are distinguished from real quantities by an underline. xxi
